Way to return Released Envelope Mesh back to a normal Path?
If you use the Create Envelope from Top Shape feature, and then later Release the Envelope you at first appear to get your original shape back.
But it's actually an object called a Mesh. While you can apply Fills and Strokes to this released Mesh, there are some things you can't do with it.
Like setting the Stroke to Inside or Outside. You also can't use this Mesh with the Pathfinder Operations.
Is there a way to return a released Envelope Mesh back a normal path?
Somewhat hidden and not self-evident:
Go to Object > Path > Offset Path and take an offset value of zero.

Creating an Envelope Mesh to a Symbol
I have created an envelope mesh to an object within a clipping mask and have made it into a symbol. The idea of this was to create a template where I can edit the symbol and have it automate the wrapping of the design using the envelope mesh. The problem that i am running into is when I edit the symbol and change out the pattern that is within a clipping mask... it will not render correctly on the envelope mesh due to the pattern size difference that is currently within a clipping mask.
Is there a way to have the envelope mesh render the size/shape of the actual clipping mask instead of pattern within the clipping mask? I am currently using CS6 Adobe Illustrator.Create your symbol with a rectangle set to fill & stroke of none, and make the rectangle larger than your largest symbol. The will acts as a bounding box in your symbol so you can update and it will not resize.

My iPod touch 8GB screen has been cracked. It is still under the Wal-Mart 2 year extended warranty, but I really want 5th generation! Any way to get it replaced then return it for money back or even get a discount on it??
Apple will only give you a 10% discount if you turn that one in and purchase the new one.
I do not know if the WalMart warranty covers accidental damage like a broken screen. -

Everyone is often so quick to bash all these 'cleaning' utilities but rarely give any solutions.
There's a lot of critiques and endless lists of what NOT to do to avoid performance problems.
My Powerbook is 3 years old. It runs like molasses... SLOW.
I'm not a computer geek, but I'm smart and understand quite a bit more than a newbie.
Do I need a degree in computer engineering to fix/speed up my mac?
Yes, I know, the cleaning utilities suck. But is it really true of all of them?
I'm not totally convinced because there seems to be such a huge market for them.
Sure, there's a huge market for bottled water too, so maybe they are just useless/marketing crap, but I really want to return to my original speed performance quickly and can't seem to find out if it's possible with a utility.
I'm not willing to sit down for 3 hours and study line by line b.s. about how to fix it.
I have no problem if it's not fixable. I've always assumed operating systems outgrow their hardware's capacity to keep up, and sell my old one for a new one, no prob.
I don't care, really, but again, I'm curious if there is any quick, easy, user-friendly utility or method that I can use to return the speed performance I had as recently as a year ago? (I'd be satisfied with that).
Anyone willing to bite on that? Anyone willing to not critique, complain, tell me what NOT to do and actually know a solution?
IS THERE ANY SIMPLE WAY TO RETURN SPEED PERFORMANCE BACK TO (OR CLOSE TO) ORIGINAL FACTORY SPEED AFTER ABOUT 3 YEARS OF RELATIVELY STANDARD USE?
The only thing I may have done outside of the norm was some video editing, but very little.Look for solutions here:

I start with the home page of a site. Then go to one of the other pages on the same site. I find no way to return to the home page without going completely out of firefox and having to start all over again. In other words the "back" arrow is gray and does not work to get me back to the original home page. Can you help with this?
Try double clicking on the Back arrow. If you click on it and hold it pressed, it should give you a drop down list of the previous pages. You can also achieve that by right click on the Back arrow. But if you do a single, quick click on it, it should take you back.

Please advise me on the best way to distort/warp/envelope this text
Hi all,
Please can you advise me on the most suitable way to distort/warp/envelope this text. I need to make it fit exactly (heightwise) into the white area below. I thought this would be a very simple thing to do in Illy but I was mistaken! I have tried using the warp and mesh methods but am just not having much luck! I have even tried doing it manually, point by point (after expanding the appearance) but it just looks like a MESS:(
As you can see, the white arc shape is not consistent in height/thickness as it tapers off towards the ends. It is thickest/tallest in the middle, so I need to get the letters to increase in height there to touch top and bottom of the white area, and then taper down in height.
Please can you help me?
Thank you kindly in advance,
Christine1. Create text, select object.
2. Object>Envelope Distort>Make with Mesh
Rows: 1
Columns: 2
3. Align center of text with center of wheel.
4. Use Direct Selection tool, Rotation tool to adjust points, Direct Selection tool to adjust handles. -

On the settings I went to iCloud then went to storage and backup and it saus total storage 5.0 gb and avaible storage is 2.7 gb but all of my photos arent there. Then when I click manage storage it says camera roll 2.0 gb is there any way i can get my photos back? please help
If you use the same iCloud ID and before you will get your contact, calendar and notes and other iCloud things back. If your previously has PhotoStream one you will also get back the last 30 days of photos.
It appears you do not use the same iCloud ID.
What do you see for Contacts, Calendar and Notes when you go to icloud.com and sing in with the same ID. You need a computer browser.

The ways to return data from a stored procedure.
Hi, I know there are three ways to pass out a value from a Microsoft SQL stored procedure, but I have no clear idea what Oracle SP can do, I know Oracle doesn't support multi-recordset(v8), can not return a recordset by a inner select query, but I do know there is a cursor object, which doesn't like its counterpart in Microsoft SQL server, is a choice under most situation. Here I wonder anyone who is good at Oracle can give a list of all ways to return data from a SP, including example is more better, thanks.
Here is a way to get return a record from a function and a procedure. You need to be familiar with Oracle packages as well as stored procedures and functions:
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE EmpPkg AS
cursor cEmp(pEmpno in number) is
select empno, ename, job, hiredate, sal
from emp
where empno = pEmpno;
FUNCTION GetEmployee(pnEmpNo in number) RETURN cEmp%rowtype;
PROCEDURE GetEmployee(pnEmpNo in number, prEmp out cEmp%rowtype);
END;
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE BODY EmpPkg AS
FUNCTION GetEmployee(pnEmpNo in number) RETURN cEmp%rowtype IS
rEmp cEmp%rowtype;
BEGIN
open cEmp(pnEmpNo);
fetch cEmp into rEmp;
close cEmp;
return rEmp;
END;
PROCEDURE GetEmployee(pnEmpNo in number, prEmp out cEmp%rowtype) IS
BEGIN
open cEmp(pnEmpNo);
fetch cEmp into prEmp;
close cEmp;
END;
END;
Here's how you use the package:
DECLARE
rEmp EmpPkg.cEmp%rowtype;
BEGIN
rEmp := EmpPkg.GetEmployee(7782);
dbms_output.put_line(rEmp.ename);
EmpPkg.GetEmployee(7902, rEmp);
dbms_output.put_line(rEmp.ename);
END;
Note that you can return any Oracle data type from a function. Likewise, you can specify any Oracle data type as an out parameter in a procedure. Also, you can make a parameter both an in and an out datatype like this:
PROCEDURE GetEmployee(pnEmpNo in out number);
I hope this puts you in the right direction.

What is the best way of returning group-by sql results in Toplink?
I have many-to-many relationship between Employee and Project; so,
a Employee can have many Projects, and a Project can be owned by many Employees.
I have three tables in the database:
Employee(id int, name varchar(32)),
Project(id int, name varchar(32)), and
Employee_Project(employee_id int, project_id int), which is the join-table between Employee and Project.
Now, I want to find out for each employee, how many projects does the employee has.
The sql query that achieves what I want would look like this:
select e.id, count(*) as numProjects
from employee e, employee_project ep
where e.id = ep.employee_id
group by e.id
Just for information, currently I am using a named ReadAllQuery and I write my own sql in
the Workbench rather than using the ExpressionBuilder.
Now, my two questions are :
1. Since there is a "group by e.id" on the query, only e.id can appear in the select clause.
This prevent me from returning the full Employee pojo using ReadAllQuery.
I can change the query to a nested query like this
select e.eid, e.name, emp.cnt as numProjects
from employee e,
(select e_inner.id, count(*) as cnt
from employee e_inner, employee_project ep_inner
where e_inner.id = ep_inner.employee_id
group by e_inner.id) emp
where e.id = emp.id
but, I don't like the complication of having extra join because of the nested query. Is there a
better way of doing something like this?
2. The second question is what is the best way of returning the count(*) or the numProjects.
What I did right now is that I have a ReadAllQuery that returns a List<Employee>; then for
each returned Employee pojo, I call a method getNumProjects() to get the count(*) information.
I had an extra column "numProjects" in the Employee table and in the Employee descriptor, and
I set this attribute to be "ReadOnly" on the Workbench; (the value for this dummy "numProjects"
column in the database is always 0). So far this works ok. However, since the numProjects is
transient, I need to set the query to refreshIdentityMapResult() or otherwise the Employee object
in the cache could contain stale numProjects information. What I worry is that refreshIdentityMapResult()
will cause the query to always hit the database and beat the purpose of having a cache. Also, if
there are multiple concurrent queries to the database, I worry that there will be a race condition
of updating this transient "numProjects" attribute. What are the better way of returning this kind
of transient information such as count(*)? Can I have the query to return something like a tuple
containing the Employee pojo and an int for the count(*), rather than just a Employee pojo with the
transient int inside the pojo? Please advise.
I greatly appreciate any help.
Thanks,
FransNo I don't want to modify the set of attributes after TopLink returns it to me. But I don't
quite understand why this matters?
I understand that I can use ReportQuery to return all the Employee's attributes plus the int count(*)
and then I can iterate through the list of ReportQueryResult to construct the Employee pojo myself.
I was hesitant of doing this because I think there will be a performance cost of not being able to
use lazy fetching. For example, in the case of large result sets and the client only needs a few of them,
if we use the above aproach, we need to iterate through all of them and wastefully create all the Employee
pojos. On the other hand, if we let Toplink directly return a list of Employee pojo, then we can tell
Toplink to use ScrollableCursor and to fetch only the first several rows. Please advise.

I recently got a new laptop, it has no music on it and I have been plugging my iPod in and listening to music that way. Tonight it decided to sync with my iTunes and deleted all of my music. Is there any way I can get my music back?

Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device: Apple Support Communities -
Since I have the newest version of itunes, I can't back up like normally. The only way is to considilate files and then put them on an external drive which I don't have. Are there any other options? If I can't back up to a disc like I used to, can I instead just keep everything on my ipod and then if I have to get a new computer or something just download all my songs from the ipod to my new computer's itunes? Will that work? Will I still be able to keep all my songs that way?
I'm going to assume the consolidating files does not work due to hard drive space limitations.
Since you're moving to Windows 7, have you tried using the Windows files and settings transfer utility? That will move everything for you to the same location on the new computer, it also allows some control over what actually gets moved.
Alternatively, if you know the location of all of the media, it can be manually moved by copying it from the old computer to the new computer in the same location.
Also, using the Apple article on moving the library, take a slight twist on what it says. Move the iTunes library to the external drive, update the settings in iTunes to reflect the library being on the external drive, then consolodate it.
The options are endless for moving the library... it simply takes a little effort to make it happen and possibly a twist on existing "standard" methods depending on your unique situation. -
